Carpokes Porsche Forum

Hello All,

I've purchased my first Porsche and came across Carpokes! via the Panorama ad. I picked up a 2017 718 Base w/manual transmission, PASM, Sport Chrono. I absolutely love the car and it's great to be driving a manual again after years with family SUVs/autos. This forum has already been a wealth of information. Happy to be here!

Welcome to Carpokes Chan! Great to have you! Awesome pure sports car you have! Lots of 718 owners here!

Welcome from WV.

Hi Chan,
Welcome to Carpokes - glad to have you aboard!
Best,
Larry

Congrats from another new 718 owner ( picked my Cayman up in late August ) and you will find your Boxster one of the most enjoyable machines you have ever owned. There is a tactile joy between man and machine that is apparent with the Boxster/Caymans that bring back the full flavor of a vehicle that engages a driver. In your case it will bring new meaning to going topless, ha!

I'm in First Settlers Region - hopefully heading to my first meet up next weekend. I picked up the Boxster earlier this month after searching all summer.

We are all pretty close. I’m a member of Wilderness Trail out of Tennessee.

I spent all summer looking with the hopes of having some good times on Appalachian roads in the fall. This spring/fall will be the year!
